ESMES POV-
I was working in my garden when I heard laughing coming from deep in the woods. It wasn't Carlisle's comforting laugh. His laugh was like ice melting in the summer sun. Nor was it Rosalie's smooth laugh or Emmett's booming one that can only be described as thunder but with a bright rainbow glowing in the background. Edwards laugh is polite and strong. And it was definitely not Alice's laugh; her laugh was light and airy. It often can be described as bells ringing in the wind; pure and innocent. But this laugh was like none I had ever heard. With this laugh I felt so many emotions swarm around me. I felt so alive and focused. But even with these feelings, I couldn't describe the laughter perfectly. It was like and explosion of internal happiness. Or maybe it's more like a deep sound. Mellow, Calming. Like water as it slowly runs off of smooth stones. It was unique and beautiful in so many ways. But who was the holder of this glorious noise? I had to know. So I carefully made my way down to the small creep avoiding being seen. But what I saw changed everything. It changed my day, it changed my outlook on love, and most importantly it changed my perspective on a member of my family.
As I sat on a small rock I stared at the unexpected sight before me. It was Jasper and Alice. They were sitting on a fallen log with their feet dangling over the edge letting them lightly grazing the clear water beneath them. They looked so peaceful and so much in love. Like nothing in the world would be better than sitting their together just gazing into each other's eyes.
Alice leaned over and whispered something into Jaspers ear. And then I heard it again, the laughter that had caught my attention earlier. I couldn't believe that it was Jaspers laugh that I had been hearing. I had always thought that he was an emotionless person. He never seemed to share any of his problems or feelings with anybody. But I was wrong. Seeing him alone with Alice changed my view on the man who had seen too much at too young of an age. He was smiling and joking around. He seemed so carefree and open.
He then said something to Alice that would have made my heart stop beating if it hadn't already. He said, "I think about you every second of every minute; 25 hours a day, 8 days a week of all the 13 months of the year and in the undefined infinity of all eternity." That quote fit our life almost perfectly. We had more than eternity ahead of use, and we should spend it all with our loved ones. Then he continued, "You are my best friend, my shoulder to lean on, the one person I know I can count on. You're the love of my life. You're my one and only. You're everything and more. Without you I would be nothing. I can't think of a better way to spend the rest of eternity than sitting here by your side." I was surprised by what Jasper had said. While most people in our family want to go out to expensive places on their dates, Alice and Jasper were content in the fact that they could just sit together and talk about sweet nothings.
But I guess I should have known that. Jasper was a simple person. He didn't want High-Tec computers, or the newest car. He would much rather sit in the passenger-side of Alice's car and hold her hand while she would drive. He just enjoyed the happy climate that he had lived without for the longest time. He wanted to spend every moment he could just basking in the happiness of those around him.
I had stayed and watched the newest members of our family for a while, but Carlisle soon found me.
"Hello my beautiful wife, have you spent all of your day spying on our children?" he asked with a teasing smile.
"Maybe, but it's not my fault. I was distracted by Jaspers laugh. And then I got even more distracted by the love they have for each other. It's so strong, I can almost feel it." I said as I rose slowly, pulling Carlisle up with me. "Come on. Let's go back to the house".
On the way back I thought about Jasper and his love for Alice. They had only been here a short time, and they had already made an impact on my life. How could I describe the man that I now consider my son? I've been through almost every descriptive word out there; Noble, athletic, personable, sympathetic, sensitive, graceful, caring, trusting. But none of them fit him perfectly.
I caught myself remembering this event today. I had never found a perfect word to describe Jaspers just like I did for the rest of my family. Carlisle's word is compassionate, Alice's is bubbly, Emmett's is spontaneous, Rosalie's is sheltered, Edwards is determined, Bella's is caring, and little Nessie's is a bringer of joy. But there is no word that I can use to describe Jasper. He's absolutely everything. He can be sensitive, but he can also be guarded. He can be trusting, but he can also hide from help. And I soon came to the conclusion that there was just a unique beauty about him. He has a beauty that can't be rightly justified in words.
Jasper has changed my life dramatically. He's helped me see that you don't always need to go to the newest movie or go to the most exclusive party as a date. Sometimes the most memorable time can be made at home. He's also helped my see that love can save you from anything. And that most people take their loved ones for granite.
Thanks for reading! I hope you liked it, even though it isn't one of my favorites. Its hard to write in esmes POV because she barley talks in the books and movie. But i tried 0.o Pleasssssseeeee review. I want to hear from you! If i do, ill do this in Nessies POV.
